Hi, this is a technical question and I hope you can help me. I tried using the self support but I wasn't able to figure out how to set the needed alert. I wanted to set up an alert for each time price "goes out" of value area. I'm using the "VbP Visible Bars" study. For further explanation, I attached a screenshot. I would like that each time price reaches or preferably goes beyond the green or yellow line, I would receive an alert. Is it possible? I read the documentation and searched for videos online but wasn't able to find anything close to what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance! Love your software. |

Within the Volume by Price study, the Value Area High and Low are stored in the SG3 and SG4 subgraphs, respectively. Therefore to test if the current price is above the Value Area High, you would use the following formula: =L > ID1.SG3 Where L is the alert shorthand for the Last price and ID1 is the ID of the Volume by Price study. To test if it is outside of either band, you would do the following: =OR(L > ID1.SG3, L < ID1.SG4) Refer to the following: Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: Available Main Price Graph Identifiers/Variables Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: Referencing Study Subgraphs Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: OR and AND Functions For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
